Burial ground and War Grave

This burial ground was miles away from any town or even small village, and not attached to a church either. The location was wild and beautiful though and a nice resting place. In the rtight foreground there is the memorial stone, erected by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission, of J. Wagstaff.

A last resting place with sea views, I'd like that! It's a beautiful place you found and both photos are very well composed.

Amelia replied to Gudrun:

I'd like that too, Gudrun. There were quite a few isolated burial grounds in this area. It's amazing what one can find using an OS Landranger map with a scale of 2cm to 1 km.

I love these old cemeteries you find only in England and northern countries. Ours are very different.
